Nichole Castillo

Match Maker

Iron Tiger Fight Series Matchmaker Nichole Castillo is an integral part of the promotion, and the driving forced behind the great fight cards that Iron Tiger puts on for its fans. Working with MMA promotions in Ohio since 2005, Castillo was thrown into the fire of matchmaking very early on and has flourished ever since.
Nichole has worked for premier promotions like Bellator MMA and over 7 other organizations throughout the Midwest. She was the first matchmaker to put together a fully sanctioned WMMA-only fight card in the state of Ohio, and just the second to achieve the feat nationwide. Beginning with Iron Tiger in May of 2015, Castillo has brought with her a myriad of experience and connections making her a true asset for the promotion.
